When You Buy a Hat.

A millinery expert advises all women to wear a white dress or a white waist when trying on hats. She says: “The color of a dress may so greatly detract from the charm of what would be a becoming hat that the customer at once asserts the hat does not suit, whereas it is often becoming. We often drape a customer’s bodice with white before even attempting to place a hat upon her head. It is /merely a waste of time and patience to try*-one color after another for a woman who is wearing an off-color dress.”
